Under the agreement, the fake electors acknowledged that Biden won the state, withdrew their filings and agreed not to serve as presidential electors in 2024 or any other election where Trump is on the ballot.
The 10 fake electors agreed to send a statement to the government offices that received the Electoral College votes saying that their actions were “part of an attempt to improperly overturn the 2020 presidential election results.”
The settlement marks the first time that any Trump electors have revoked their filings sent to Congress purporting that Trump had won in seven battleground states. Nevada on Wednesday became the third state to criminally charge fake electors, following Georgia and Michigan. Trump faces charges in Georgia and in a federal investigation of his conduct related to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
Remind me again, after all the Republican claims of election fraud, and all the investigations of elections fraud, how much fraud was actually found to have happened?
And of that which did happen, which party was that fraud done to benefit?
Remember folks, this was a civil case, so jail time was not an option.
There is no known criminal investigation ongoing in Wisconsin. Democratic Attorney General Josh Kaul has signaled that he is relying on federal investigators to look into what happened in Wisconsin, while also not ruling out a state probe.
This does not mean there is not a criminal investigation, only that if there is, then those conducting it can keep a secret.
Heck of a sweetheart deal, for treason.
Just look at their sweet, patriotic, white faces! They’ve learned their lesson and are really sorry and they said you’re really pretty. Can’t we just let bygones be bygones? Pweety pwease?
agreed not to serve as presidential electors in 2024 or any other election where Trump is on the ballot.
They shouldn’t be allowed to serve as electors in any election.
In fact… they should not be allowed to take office of any stripe, and get slapped with a felony conviction and loose their voting privileges, too
I’m with you until that last one. No one should lose their voting rights short of losing their citizenship.
I didn’t’ make the rules… but if some black kid can loose his voting rights for a weekend’s stash of weed, these guys can loose it for overthrowing their lawful government.
(on the whole, I agree felons shouldn’t loose their voting rights. or maybe not permanently. willing to talk about that)
